About the Toccoa

Hailed as one of Trout Unlimited’s 100 Best Trout Streams in America, the Toccoa River flows from south to north from its headwaters near Suches, GA to the Tennessee state line, where it becomes the Ocoee River (also world-renowned for its challenging whitewater).

The Toccoa is stocked with rainbow, brown and brook trout, and also boasts a healthy population of smallmouth bass. The river’s record brown trout was captured in 2021 and weighed a hefty 18+ pounds, while the record rainbow tipped the scales at just over eight and a half pounds.

The Toccoa’s tailwater below Blue Ridge Dam in Fannin County enjoys an abundance of aquatic insects and forage fish, making it a great river for midges, nymphs, dries and streamers. Spin fishermen can also expect hard hits from well-presented spin and swim baits.

Trout Town Outfitters is proud to call these waters home, and we’re always happy to entertain a fish tale or two. Drop us a line or inquire about conditions before your trip. Since our trips run without guides, we’re always happy to arm you with the latest and greatest on conditions and fly patterns that have been working.
